Buffalo
for Howard Good
We learned
didn’t we?
that buffalo
were hunted
nearly to extinction
by Western wantonness.
We have learned
haven’t we?
that they’ve come back
in herds of hundreds of thousands
on prairie ranches.
We’re required by law
aren’t we?
to believe it is so.
This is to salve
a little sore of collective guilt.
They’re not there, really,
are they?
You may drive the Dakotas,
count them up and
reckon their numbers.
But they aren’t there.

Those Holsteins don't stand a chance- not much natural camouflage to blend in unless you live in a black and white world..That's why I prefer to hunt Herefords and Holsteins on public lands,
